POWER OF PRAYING FOR MISSIONARIES

PRAISE THE LORD FOR THE POWER OF PRAYER!

“This [continuous supply of oil] is the word of the Lord to Zerubbabel [prince of Judah], saying, ‘Not by might, nor by power, but by My Spirit [of whom the oil is a symbol],’ says the Lord of hosts." Zech.4:6
God anoints our prayers! He truly does, especially when we pray according to His Word (His Will & Way)! Your prayers for Missionaries to Mozambique have been so used for God's Glory. How?
*Strength - the road has been long and hard. But, "in our weakness, He is strong!" God's strength has empowered, led and broke through in oh so many ways.
*Wisdom- Receiving WISE GUIDANCE from the Holy Spirit; know who to contact and when.
*Anointing-  We have traveled across the United States and ministered in many churches. We also have been in homes, on the streets, in community gatherings, the market place, restaurants, and coffee shops -ALL where the Hope of the Gospel was preached! Where we prayed for many; who have to come Christ, healed, called and given Hope to pursue their call.
*Supply- In this journey where we have traveled; we started with no avenues of support. That was our first year. Yet, God brought it in miraculously. As my retired Pastor father told us many years ago: "He sent the ravens!" {story of Elijah} Going from no income for over 4 years to this is a true miracle in itself! He has supplied a home for us to live in, gas in our vehicles, clothes, food, personal needs for the children and such.
He also has given the INCREASE - "...but God gave the increase." 1 Cor. 3:6  We went from 0% monthly funded to somewhere presently in the 90%+. HALLELUJAH! 

G0D LED US TO SET THE TARGET DATE
(to be funded).
As we took some time to pray, just seeking the Lord about this; we felt strongly to set the date for APRIL 30TH. HIS TIME....HIS WAY...HIS PURPOSE! So, we took the step to announce this. When we did; more support started rolling in. And some still is too!
Presently it is April 20th; meaning: 10 more days!
We have an incredible amount of peace. Like the first scripture declares - "...it is by HIS SPIRIT...!"
EVERYONE ASKS.... "So, when are you leaving?" I tell them our target date GOD GAVE US to be funded is: April 30th.
Here is the steps toward leaving:
1) FULLY FUNDED (have to be)
2) BUY AIRPLANE TICKETS (in order to get our Visa)
3) VISA & FBI BACKGROUND CERTIFIED (for residency Visa when we get there).
4) FINALIZED TRAVEL PLANS WITH AGENT
5) LEAVE
WE ARE KEEPING QUITE BUSY EVEN NOW UNTIL WE LEAVE!
*MINISTRY - Traveling and speaking. Personal one on one meetings. And the phone calls; for support.
*PACKING - Oh are we packing! We just unloaded all our large items out and most of our boxes. Now it's odds and ends. We will be giving most of what's left away.
*VISITING PARENTS -  They are 87 years old. Read what my father (a retired Pastor)wrote me recently: "
We are fully in line with God on your leaving for His work; but it will take a lot of Prayer and His Grace to see you go and be far apart. Maybe, till we meet in Heaven. Doing God's will was never made for Convenience or Comfort, or Family "Togetherness." We all feel the same way, it's not an extended vacation; it's a 'Call of God' to run to the Dying and rescue them from eternal loss. We are trying hard to convince us of that as well."
*SAYING GOODBYE - To our family: our son, parents, brother, sister...and dear friends! Saying good bye to the American liberties. To English...lol! 

Yet, oh we are so ready to be SPENT UP for Jesus...for the lost...for our hurting pastors in Mozambique!

WE STILL NEED A LITTLE MORE SUPPORT TO BE READY TO FLY
If you are supporting us monthly right now...THANK YOU so very much!
Thanks to those who do and have increased their support! Wow!
If you haven't yet; we welcome you to be a part of this team of ministry to Mozambique.  $10 a month? $20 per month or $50? To raise the support by % it is $80 a month.  We feel it's important to first pray, seek the Lord - and then be open to how He leads. Everyone we have talked to, have told us that God has super blessed their lives in oh so many ways when they made the commitment to support this missionary call.
They feel like they are going to Africa; that's because THEY are by their giving!
There is another way to support as well:
We can
receive charitable gifts from an IRA.  It is a very tax effective way to give, because it excludes the income from the donor’s income. 
A person  should contact the broker who handles their IRA, and let them know their intentions.  A check would need to be sent from their account directly to OMS, and include the information that it is an IRA contribution and that the funds are to go to your support account.

RESCUE, ENCOURAGE, SNATCH THE SOULS FROM DARKNESS TO LIGHT IN AFRICA!
We love each of you! Contact us if you need prayer too!

Also, where they both help start the Caring Place Outreach ministry (30 years ago).
And where Brad was called to the mission field.  Pretty amazing at: The Caring Place- Inpls, IN.

JANUARY 2018 UP-DATE & PRAYER NEEDS MISSIONARIES TO MOZAMBIQUE

UP-DATE TIME!

JANUARY 2018
PRAISES
* We are getting quite a bit closer to being fully funded.
* We were able to go to the East Coast to minister. [Oct.]
* Felecia was accepted to Valley Forge University and received several scholarships. She is starting tomorrow with her online classes. Fully funded!
* God connected us with more churches, businesses and individuals. TOTALLY GOD'S HANDS ON THAT!
* Our son and his girlfriend flew home recently. He was here for 6 days! The Lord gave him favor in purchasing a new truck. The owner of the dealership (who was led by the Holy Spirit) truly reached out and blessed him.
* God has blessed us with seeing family (which are several states away) these past couple months.
* God's Protecting Hand has truly been on our son as he is serving in the military.
* A few one time gifts have come in recently as well.
* Our Driver's License Apostille came in from the state. 


PRAYER NEEDS
* God's Perfect Timing -- when we are to leave for Africa.
* Admittedly; we are walking with God's Strength for each step. We are holding our spiritual eyes up to our GREAT KING, LORD AND HOPE! Pray we always rest in Him as it is exhausting asking for monthly support. 'FOR WITH OUR GOD....ALL THINGS ARE POSSIBLE!' It's not in ourselves.
* Felecia; as she is doing school online; that she learns and it goes smoothly.
* Tabitha; as she is home schooling and will continue to home school in Africa.
* Nathan; as he is Serving our great country in the Navy. He is tired, and exhausted. Pray for his protection in everyway.
* Please pray many respond and COMMIT to SUPPORTING this ministry MONTHLY. It's hard for people, but oh pray one's will see the reward of SOULS COMING TO JESUS, PASTORS ENCOURAGED AND HAVE GOD'S GIFTS + ANNOINTING INCREASE INTO THEIR MINISTRIES, FOR REVIVAL TO BREAK OUT IN THIS COUNTRY THAT NEEDS THE LORD OH SO MUCH.
* Pray for:
      - a storage unit for our items
      - to continue living in this parsonage till we leave (God has provided with His amazing favor here).
* For our Ministry Invitation Letter Apostille from the Secretary of State, and Federal Government to be processed correctly and quickly.
* Still in need for dental work; God's leading and provision.
* Beginning to purchase our duffle bags and totes. Among other items needed before we leave.
* Pray for our Mozambique OMS Team: They need strength, rest, anointing, provision, healing, and so much more. God is using them and there is so much need. We need more missionaries and Mozambican Christians to do God's Work there.
* Pray we get meetings; HOUSE MEETINGS with groups, individual meetings and services. Presently; we have only a couple scheduled. 

MOZAMBIQUE
- This country of 28.83 million people, is only 10% Evangelical (serves Jesus as their Lord & Savior).
- 5.5% are unreached (have not heard the Gospel Message and does not have the Bible in hand).
- Life expectancy is 55 years old.  45% of the population is under the age of 14 years.
-  HIV/AIDS & Malaria are the top killers of the people; so many pass away into eternity without knowing Jesus as their Lord and Savior.
- God has put the tool in our hands to go and till the Land of the hearts of people there.

NEED
Our family is ready and willing to sacrifice for this CALL to RESCUE THE PERISHING! Eternity is around the corner for all of us!
Will you sacrifice too?
2 Samuel 24:24 Says, "SACRIFICE MUST COST SOMETHING."
We will go; but we must be SENT by: YOU!
Our family, friends, co-laborers, the entire Body of Christ.
16 of the 28 Parables Jesus told, were about GIVING.
Luke 6:38 "Give and it shall be given unto you."
HOW? "...press down, shaken together and running over (with no space left for more)."
GOD CREATED GIVING FOR:
ALL OUR SAKES
Simply, we need about 20 more 1% supporters; that is $80.00 per month.
Or several at $25 a month, $50 and the average support is $100.
When we go; YOU WILL BE GOING WITH US...AND THAT: 'PRESS DOWN' / 'SHAKEN TOGETHER' REWARD - YOU WILL SEE HERE AND IN ETERNITY! 
PRAISE THE LORD!
